Maybe you’re biking DC at night awestruck at how the monuments light up the sky. And let’s not forget a relaxing pedicab ride during cherry blossom season when the Tidal Basin is oh-so-pretty in pink!

Travel Notes From Our Experience Designer

“DC is soooo much more than people think and we have amazing ways of showing it off. I adore our magical pedicab ride among the breathtaking cherry blossoms and the beauty of our private bike tour to see the monuments lit up at night. But my personal favorites are those incredible Smithsonian museums – there are 19 of them! It’s a city I love to share with our guests – and our unique experiences – like a speedboat ride on the Potomac – turn every DC trip into unforgettable memories.”

What To Be Passionate About In Washington DC

The National Mall in Washington DC is more than a park – it’s a live chapter of American history. Picture the view after climbing the Lincoln Memorial steps or gazing up in awe at the Washington Monument. Each step is a historical journey, an adventure through America’s past that you won’t want to miss.

 

 

The Smithsonian? It’s not just a visit, it’s an adventure. Imagine seeing Dorothy’s ruby slippers at the American History Museum or the original 1903 Wright Flyer at the Air and Space Museum. With 19 museums and a zoo, it’s like unlocking a treasure chest of discoveries, one exhibit at a time.

Every year from late March through early April the cherry blossoms burst through, covering DC in a sea of pink during the Annual Cherry Blossom Festival, making it the perfect time to visit. Imagine the city’s iconic landmarks, even more magical, surrounded by stunning pink blooms. Bonus – our private Washington DC tours become even more Instagrammable!

DC’s not just politics – it’s also a foodie’s dream! Here you’ll discover an awesome mix of flavors from Ethiopian spices to Korean BBQ as every corner of the city dishes out its own food adventure. Get your belly ready for a delicious dive into the nation’s diverse culinary scene with our Washington DC tours centered on its fabulous fare!

You can’t visit DC without hitting the big three – the Capitol, the White House and the Supreme Court. More than just beautiful buildings, they are the heart of America’s story – standing for democracy, freedom and justice. It’s more than just a history lesson – it’s a journey into what makes America, well, America.

Quotes From Our Travelers

“I was in DC for business during the National Cherry Blossom Festival but had some time to spare. I contacted Beyond Times Square to discuss the best tour to take to see the blossoms and they set up a private pedicab tour for me. It was the perfect choice and my driver was a wealth of knowledge. Highly recommend them!”

I didn’t just walk around aimlessly – I got to hear fascinating insights and little-known stories that made the experience that much more powerful!”

“We used Beyond Times Square for our family trip to DC. Our Experience Designer was amazing. She basically took care of every detail from pick up at the airport in a private vehicle to a 5-star hotel to tours that were educational and fun for not only the kids – but us as parents as well!”

“As a foodie, I was skeptical about DC as a culinary destination. But Beyond Times Square totally changed my perception. The private food tour they arranged in Georgetown was like an amazing, flavorful journey through the city’s cultural tapestry. I was tasting DC – not just visiting it!”

Thank you Beyond Times Square for so many special moments on our DC trip! One of our favorites was our private night tour of the monuments – not only were they a stunning sight – but the guide’s knowledge made us feel like we were walking through the pages of a history book!”
